G-Body Destruction

I am not really sure what to say, so I will just leave this here.

eBay G-Body Deal of the Week 12/1/2013

This week we have a very clean El Camino.  It looks to be rust free and only has 59k miles on it.  It would be a great foundation for some performance modifications or you could keep it stock.  This one might go a little high due to the condition, but it looks like it is worth it.

eBay G-Body Deal of the Week 11/10/2013

Here is something a little different.  It is a street legal NASCAR replica.  It looks pretty cool.  The price is still low, but it hasn't met the reserved price.

eBay G-Body Deal of the Week 10/27/2013

This week we have a 1980 Chevrolet El Camino.  It says SS on the side, but it was originally a Royal Knight.  It looks clean and, judging from the description, the guy seems like a straight shooter.  I am not sure about the flat/matte paint job, but I think I could live with it.

Buick GS Nationals 2013

Soooo...I didn't even know this event existed.  And if I had, I probably would not have guessed it would be full of G-Body Buicks.  Check out this video.



I fell in love with the Buick GS when I bought my 1972 Buick Skylark in high school.  There are some beautiful examples at this event along with all of those turbo Buicks.  This seems like a cool event.  It includes a car show and racing.  I may try to attend in years to come.

Check out that youtube channel for videos of the drag racing also.

eBay Deal of the Week 10/20/2013

This week we have something a little different.  I have always wanted a car with hydraulics, and here is a great example.

It is pretty clean inside and out.  It is only $510 right now (which hasn't hit the reserve) and with a buy it now price of $4500 it seems reasonable.  The rear axle has been strengthened, it is a v8 and has a center console.  They claim it needs some work, but it runs and drives.  If you are interested in this type of car, this looks like a good place to start.
